Re: [cpx] Installed CPX, Spamassassin and ClamAV not working

[Jerry Gapinski - Acuity Creative <jerry@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Jeff

Yes, thanks for the help. (I was going to post my solution when complete.)
However, it appeared that ClamAV was still not scanning email, there was no
"X-ClamAV:" header. Plus I was still getting viruses (about 1 per minute) in
my old (spam) account.

I looked at the logs and ClamAV was scanning, but giving this error:
    procmail: Error while writing to "/home/USERNAME/Mail/Quarantine"

I installed CPX on an existing system, none of my old users have a
home/USERNAME/Mail/ directory, thus the error and the delivery of the virus.

I reinstalled clamav via vinstall changing from per user settings to server
wide setting. (This is what I prefer anyway.) I /dev/null the viruses.

I am now getting the "X-ClamAV: clean" header and viruses are being blocked!

Thanks for everyone's help.

Jerry
